Pain: Many possibilities for this including a muscle or tendon issue to your leg and foot, a nerve issue or compression, medication induced from the Bactrim (sulfamethoxazole and trimethoprim) is possible as well, an electrolyte abnormality and even possible you may have a blood clot in your leg. I would see someone to get checked out.
